August: Letting Go with the Lion's Gate Portal

This is a time to let go of the past and welcome new beginnings. The Lion's Gate Portal offers a powerful opportunity for personal growth and spiritual awakening, helping you align with the universe's energy and turn your dreams into reality. - Lion's Gate Portal article.

Each month, Kerry K. creates a video sharing her intuitive guidance about what lightworkers and healers, and often, humanity in general, can expect to encounter in the spiritually or energetically. I was particularly struck by what she said in her video this month and I want to share some of my own thoughts about how to respond, and maybe inspire your own.

But today, I also am celebrating The Lion's Gate and if you are reading this on or near the 8th of August, make a wish for whatever you want to let go of and whatever you dream of manifesting in your life.

This is a personal month, where you will feel personally challenged to let go. For some you will feel like you have no choice and rather than letting go, it's going to feel that something is being taken away. It's only temporary, once the release happens the relief happens and healing sets in, rippling into the rest of your life. - Kerry K.

Your Soul's Plan for August

According to some spiritual teachers, we healers often do work on the spiritual level (maybe while we are asleep) that we are not aware of consciously. I believe that, and I think we are far more connected as a collective than we might think we are.

Kerry made reference to this in her video and said that as a collective, our souls came up with two plans for August that, if we can do them on the individual level, could have a big impact on humanity.

(1) One is about letting go of something that has been a challenge for you. Part of you may resist or try to hang on to whatever the issue is for you.

Hey! I wasn't done with that yet.

But if we can remain open to it, the freedom we experience as a result will be powerful. And it will affect every other part of our lives.

What do you need to let go of, that has been an ongoing challenge for you?

(2) The other shift is about taking your power back and steeping into it fully. That empowerment will be offered to humanity as a whole, but we can help by doing the alchemy in our own lives.

She asked us to consider this question: where am I disempowering myself?

Wherever that is for you, if you can take your power back, you are likely to experience a peace that not only affects you, but has an impact on those around you and humanity as a whole.

In order to create the empowerment we are now being called to, we each will have to let go of something that used to make us feel safe. What is that for you?

Part of what I just said - letting go of something that used to make you feel safe - is a quote in a book by Darla LeDoux.

So what shall we do, to help ourselves this month?
​

Fear is the Common Denominator

It is fear (or the desire to feel safe) that makes us cling to something that isn't good for us and fear that makes us give our power away. So let's take a look at the plan I've cooked up for us. :)

4 Questions, 1 Visualization
& 2 Hygge Tea Rituals

Mornings: During your morning tea ritual, I want you to sip and reflect on this question: what can I do today to feel safe and grounded? 

​Evenings: I want you to make a cup of tea each evening that you can, for the rest of this month, and ask yourself the following questions...

(1) What am I being called to let go of this month?

(2) How am I disempowering myself?

(3) How did fear show up today?

The Visualization: pause for a moment throughout the day and notice your breathing. After a few breaths, imagine that you are surrounded by warmth, coziness and love.

Picture them emanating from a warm glowing light within your heart. Now, imagine that that light is expanding until it both fills you and surrounds you.

Notice that it doesn't stop at the ground or floor, but continues into the earth and travels all the way to the earth's core, grounding you and anchoring you in safety.

~*~*~*~

Wondering when you'll find time for the visualization? Tie it to something you do several times a day - going to the bathroom. :)

Chakra Healing to Help You 
​Let Go & Feel Safe

Because fear is often the reason we hang onto the things we need to let go of, I believe that finding new ways to feel safe in every area of our lives needs to be part of our ongoing game plan. And heading into fall, you may want to consider practices that continue the work in a deeper way.

For example, with chakra healing. It's a mind-body-soul practice that can be life-changing as you let go, nurture, heal and empower your life.

But I suggest a slightly different focus. As you work on balancing and healing your chakras, bring safety to each one, not just the root chakra. 

And empower each one, not just the solar plexus.

So you want to make it safe to trust yourself and your life, to be creative, to take back your power, to open your heart, to find your voice and your purpose, to listen to your intuition and to connect to your own divinity and to Spirit. And when you feel safe to take back your power, you'll do it in each of those ways.

Watch this website and stay tuned. I'm putting together a chakra healing resource for you that will include meditations to help you feel safe. When it's ready, I'll link to it above.

My Own Healing Intentions

There are several areas where I have been challenged in big ways, and I would welcome freedom in any of them. My relationship with money is one I mentioned last week, but I would also like to let go of limiting beliefs around power, agency and what I am capable of creating in my life.

And that would be right on time, because empowerment was one of the things she mentioned.

Dare I intend healing in more than one area? I'm going to need more rest! 

But returning to the chakras and creating safety will make it easier. 

My wish for the Lion's Gate Portal is that it returns me to my memory of who I am (the infinite me) and deepens my access to my wisdom and abilities. I also believe it will align me with how the spiritual rescue mission we healers and lightworkers all are on is meant to play out in my life, specifically.

Wishing you powerful magic as you step into the portal today!

​love, Jeanine
